Wrong boat then... didnt get to NH this year. Other than your "blow up", have you had any issues with the Bravos?

Not at all and the blow up was more my fault than the drives. I did not tighthen the top cap and it lossened up on the left one(the one using the top gear)
Since then I torque them everytime I put in and have not had any problems. I NEVER go over 3000 rpm getting on plane.
I rode in that OL in Key West in November and I was very impressed. His ride does not have the berth in the nose like the pictures of the ride here. On Cigs when you add the front berth I have been told it costs up to 2-3 MPH on similar models, so that might also explain the top speed.
Hope this helps.

Thanks! I am going to draw names out of a hat tonite and then move forward with the pursuit.
I love the 38 T/G,35 Cig, 37 OL and the 38 beak boat. What about your 600s? What kind of history do you have with them... good ? I have not heard much about them and a TG I am looking at has them.. Thanks Jim

do you have to have a cabin? if you don't, look at a gladiator... or for that matter a cat ..... but if you have to have a cabin, get an OL, you won't see one every time you turn around...
